This the title pretty much covers my feeling of the up comming big thing in DC.

As interesting it might be to see DC's heroes under new settings with different pasts, i just have a feeling this will not be quite as awsome wicked as the teams writing it seems to make it sound like on DC's Blog. For one, they arent letting anything out, other than headlines that tell very little. Secondly as a TT fan i am personally sick to death about having to contend with Deathstroke as the only Titan creation that get do do anything outside of TT titles. However that ire is soothed somewhat by Cyborgs role in it all. Lastly I think it's boring that each and every event DC trots out is somehow tied to one of Big Seven of the JLA, FP is Flash, BN/BD was GL, Final Crisis was a Superman/Batman thing...and so on. It's not that i actually dislike the characters (mostly), but it's stale to see the same faces appear at the end of every story and nail whatever the problem was at the beginning.

/end of rant

I only have one problem with Flashpoint:

Other than that I think it will be a fun event. I love Elseworld-type stories.

Well, I admit, i do as well....but DC isnt the place to make them. The company has practically wiped out the 'non-canon' features from Elseworlds (when was the last time they made one?), while Marvel is alot better at utilizing their multiverse and alternate timelines. So with all the DC writers going bonkers with excitement, i am somehow inclined to compare them to a group of people celebrating their first cellphone while the rest of us are playing Angry Birds or something...
